Bill > HF2272

This bill prohibits medical professionals from performing certain procedures or administering certain medications on minors that are intended to alter the child's sex or gender identity. The bill defines key terms like "sex," "gender dysphoria," and "gender nonconformity," and provides protections for medical professionals who counsel in accordance with their conscience or religious beliefs. The bill also requires government agencies to notify parents if a minor under their care exhibits signs of gender dysphoria or nonconformity, and it allows those harmed by violations of the bill to seek judicial relief. The bill preempts local governments from interfering with the professional conduct of mental health professionals acting under the provisions of the bill.
